Material & Manufacture process: Cast Marble

Cast Marble statues are
made from a composite material in which natural crushed Greek Marble
stone is mixed with a small quantity of resin that works as a glue. The
mixture is then poured into a mold of the statue design. Because the
powder is so fine the smallest details can be reproduced using this
method. Over 90% of the finished sculpture is natural crushed
Greek Marble stone, which gives it a look and feel of solid natural
marble. All sculptures are finished by hand to ensure the finest
quality. This strong material is water and weather resistant, doesn’t
have bubbles, will not crack, and can be washed with most cleaning
agents.

Please note:
Our statues are not carved. Natural marble statues are hand carved and
command a very hefty price. Our product offerings are intended to be
affordable to the majority public.

In
ancient Greek religion and mythology, the Muses are the inspirational
goddesses of literature, science, and the arts. They are considered the
source of the knowledge embodied in the poetry, lyric songs, and myths
that were related orally for centuries in these ancient cultures. In
current English usage, “muse” can refer in general to a person who
inspires an artist, musician, or writer. 9 MUSES are: Calliope (epic
poetry), Clio (history), Euterpe (flutes and lyric poetry), Thalia
(comedy and pastoral poetry), Melpomene (tragedy), Terpsichore (dance),
Erato (love poetry), Polyhymnia (sacred poetry), and Urania (astronomy).
